Also, their Instagram admissions account says 18 hours ago from 9:15am CST that we should be expecting ED decisions soon, but not exactly when.
@2a1ndebate Finance is indeed separate from admission, but the question here is whether or not receiving the financial e-mail from CollegeBoard/Northwestern has any association with the possibility of acceptance. I do not believe that it does, however, later this week we will know for certain if the e-mails were of any significance.
My S20 did not received the financial email and did not apply for fafsa. I agree it might be technical glitch during some IT testing. Giving the date financial email was sent out (Nov 29 or Dec 2 based on other people who received), I think it is too early if they already have actual admitted/Denied list on their system.
Good luck to everyone!
Just called Undergraduate Admissions and was told that ED decisions will be released Friday evening
@ProudD Yes, we’re in the same boat… D has received merit scholarships from some really great schools that would save us $200K+ in tuition. ? I’m thinking it’s just fine if she doesn’t get into NU and she goes to xx Big 10 school for a fraction of the price. But she absolutely loves NU and it’s really a perfect fit for her… Anxiously waiting for decisions…
By Friday evening or on Friday evening?
@NewJeffCT On Friday evening
Are you 100% sure?
@chromsome1 I called admissions and that’s what I was told
@Scubaski1 Congratulation! May I ask what major your daughter is applying to? $200K+ scholarship for a great school, that’s fantastic!!!
Ha. What happened to “they would be released this evening?”
That was another thread - we’ll find out tonight or Friday night, or maybe even tomorrow
If anything is going to come out, it will be around 5pm tonight
@april2013… Thanks… She applied to Engineering and Music. She’s also a Natl. Merit semifinalist… so she got scholarships for that too. But her heart is totally with NU so we supported her going ED…
Best of luck!
NU just updated their Instagram story saying decisions can be seen “later this week”!
So it seems like it’ll most probably be Friday.
I was told by a friend yesterday, who had talked to an admissions officer telling her that it was coming out Thursday evening, so this is very confusing. It has been on a Thursday for two years in a row, so I am hoping that it is Thursday.
The admissions team posted something on Instagram around an hour ago saying to stay tuned on the admission instagram for the ed release date… they then said again that Northwestern decision can be seen later this week.
A friend heard they will not release on Friday the 13th and they typically don’t like releasing on Fridays in general, more likely Thursday. Good luck to all!!
It’s Friday! They just posted.
